Can I dye the fabric on this chair?
Question:I was given this old chair. The fabric is a sort of velvet. I have dyed my clothes with Rit dye. Does anyone know if I can dye this upholstery with a spray bottle of Rit dye?
Answers:
no way not a good idea... If im not mistaken you have to wash the dye to set it even still its not made for furniture and can and may rub off onto clothes and so on... not to mention that a velvet like material will end up looking like a wet cat same with fabric paint maybe if it was a cotton or something to that effect it would be dyeable but not that material...
i don't know about spraying the fabric, it seems like it might work but if not you could always out new fabric on the chair
